antithesis of Brock's mother, she
was tall and thin, possessed of
penetrating hazel eyes in a
strongly featured plain face.
"Well," she had said, "so you're
Thayer." Her handclasp was firm,
her gaze dazzling. "And you're
very poor at description, Corinne,"
she added, to her sister-in-law.
"Why," fluttered Mrs. Kittridgc

had held no warmth.

Three days after her arrival
Flrock had come into Thayer's

find him standing thcte, looking
at her. He said, never shifting

He flu-hed, then put a hand on

it s her only boy, Thayer. It was
pretty hard on her having him

And now . . ." His fingers tight-

"Sec?" he said.
As Thayer went pa t him and
out of the door he turned and
swung into step beside her. "Hi!"
Brock said to everyone they met.
"Hi! How arc you?" Thayer was
aware of glances following them.
"Well," she said when they*
reached the street, "I hope you
think this is very funny."
He stopped then, looked down
at her, shook his head. "I muffed
it pretty hadlv, but I didn't want
any of them to sec how com-

will you?"
"But—the biscuit* . . ."
"Cosh, the biscuits. 1 told her

They stixid, their eyes searching

at the very core of his. Thayer
could feel the corners of her
mouth twitch. Suddenly they
were laughing, looking into each
other's eyes—and laughing.
She felt the strong pressure of
his fingers at her elbow, heard hi*
voice, deep, assured. "Right bis-

Ten days later she married
